The past few years has seen a remarkable
surge in the use and application of photonic optical
cavities to induce, manipulate, and modify chemical
process through strong coupling between quantized cavity
photons and molecular states to form polaritons.

Cavity polaritons arise from non-perturbative coupling between the strongly quantized modes of the electromagnetic fields in the optical cavity and the optical transitions of the molecular species within the cavity. These transitions can be vibrational or vibronic depending upon the tuning of the cavity.
